After switching to the real data pages, the sequence counter needs to be
reloaded from there. The code using vdso_read_begin_timens() assumed
this worked by 'continue' jumping to the *beginning* of the do-while
retry loop. However the 'continue' jumps to the *end* of said loop,
evaluating the exit condition. If the data page has a sequence counter
of '1' it will match the one from the time namespace page and prematurely
exit the retry loop. This would result in garbage returned to the caller.
Reload the sequence counter after switching the pages by using an inner
while loop again, which will loop at most once.
The loop generates slightly better code than an explicit reload through
'seq = vdso_read_begin()'.

With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y, GCC may decide not to inline
__cvdso_clock_getres_common(). This introduces spurious internal
function calls in the vDSO fastpath.
Furthermore, with automatic stack variable initialization
(CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN) GCC can emit
a call to memset() which is not valid in the vDSO.
Mark __cvdso_clock_getres_common() as __always_inline to avoid both issues.
Paradoxically the inlining even reduces the size of the code:
$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.before arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o.after
add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 52/-148 (-96)

__cvdso_clock_getres_common 144 - -144
Total: Before=2788, After=2692, chg -3.44%
With CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE=y the functions are always inlined
and therefore the behaviour stays the same.

Historically each architecture defined their own way to store the vDSO
data page. Add a generic mechanism to provide storage for that page.
Furthermore this generic storage will be extended to also provide
uniform storage for *non*-time-related data, like the random state or
architecture-specific data. These will have their own pages and data
structures, so rename 'vdso_data' into 'vdso_time_data' to make that
split clear from the name.
Also introduce a new consistent naming scheme for the symbols related to
the vDSO, which makes it clear if the symbol is accessible from
userspace or kernel space and the type of data behind the symbol.
The generic fault handler contains an optimization to prefault the vvar
page when the timens page is accessed. This was lifted from s390 and x86.

MIPS already uses and S390 will need the vdso data pointer in
__arch_get_hw_counter().
This works nicely as long as the architecture does not support time
namespaces in the VDSO. With time namespaces enabled the regular
accessor to the vdso data pointer __arch_get_vdso_data() will return the
namespace specific VDSO data page for tasks which are part of a
non-root time namespace. This would cause the architectures which need
the vdso data pointer in __arch_get_hw_counter() to access the wrong
vdso data page.
Add a vdso_data pointer argument to __arch_get_hw_counter() and hand it in
from the call sites in the core code. For architectures which do not need
the data pointer in their counter accessor function the compiler will just
optimize it out.
Fix up all existing architecture implementations and make MIPS utilize the
pointer instead of invoking the accessor function.
No functional change and no change in the resulting object code (except
MIPS).

The original x86 VDSO implementation checked for the validity of the clock
source read by testing whether the returned signed cycles value is less
than zero. This check was also used by the vdso read function to signal
that the current selected clocksource is not VDSO capable.
During the rework of the VDSO code the check was removed and replaced with
a check for the clocksource mode being != NONE.
This turned out to be a mistake because the check is necessary for paravirt
and hyperv clock sources. The reason is that these clock sources have their
own internal sequence counter to validate the clocksource at the point of
reading it. This is necessary because the hypervisor can invalidate the
clocksource asynchronously so a check during the VDSO data update is not
sufficient. Having a separate indicator for the validity is slower than
just validating the cycles value. The check for it being negative turned
out to be the fastest implementation and safe as it would require an uptime
of ~73 years with a 4GHz counter frequency to result in a false positive.
Add an optional function to validate the cycles with a default
implementation which allows the compiler to optimize it out for
architectures which do not require it.

When adding gettime64() to a 32 bit architecture (namely powerpc/32)
it has been noticed that GCC doesn't inline anymore
__cvdso_clock_gettime_common() because it is called twice
(Once by __cvdso_clock_gettime() and once by
__cvdso_clock_gettime32).
This has the effect of seriously degrading the performance:
Before the implementation of gettime64(), gettime() runs in:
clock-gettime-monotonic-raw: vdso: 1003 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic-coarse: vdso: 592 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic: vdso: 942 nsec/call
When adding a gettime64() entry point, the standard gettime()
performance is degraded by 30% to 50%:
clock-gettime-monotonic-raw: vdso: 1300 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic-coarse: vdso: 900 nsec/call
clock-gettime-monotonic: vdso: 1232 nsec/call
Adding __always_inline() to __cvdso_clock_gettime_common() regains the
original performance.
In terms of code size, the inlining increases the code size by only 176
bytes. This is in the noise for a kernel image.

The vDSO library should only include the necessary headers required for
a userspace library (UAPI and a minimal set of kernel headers). To make
this possible it is necessary to isolate from the kernel headers the
common parts that are strictly necessary to build the library.

On powerpc, __arch_get_vdso_data() clobbers the link register, requiring
the caller to save it.
As the parent function already has to set a stack frame and saves the link
register before calling the C vdso function, retrieving the vdso data
pointer there is less overhead.
Split out the functional code from the __cvdso.*() interfaces into new
static functions which can either be called from the existing interfaces
with the vdso data pointer supplied via __arch_get_vdso_data() or directly
from ASM code.

On powerpc/32, GCC (8.1) generates pretty bad code for the ns >>= vd->shift
operation taking into account that the shift is always <= 32 and the upper
part of the result is likely to be zero. GCC makes reversed assumptions
considering the shift to be likely >= 32 and the upper part to be like not
zero.
unsigned long long shift(unsigned long long x, unsigned char s)
{
return x >> s;
}
results in:
00000018 <shift>:

Even when forcing the shift to be smaller than 32 with an &= 31, it still
considers the shift as likely >= 32.
Move the default shift implementation into an inline which can be redefined
in architecture code via a macro.

Some architectures have a fixed clocksource which is known at compile time
and cannot be replaced or disabled at runtime, e.g. timebase on
PowerPC. For such cases the clock mode check in the VDSO code is pointless.
Move the check for a VDSO capable clocksource into an inline function and
allow architectures to redefine it via a macro.

clocksource supported it makes sense to optimize the guts of the high
resolution parts of the VDSO out at build time. Add a helper function to

which can be overridden by an architecture.

To support time namespaces in the vdso with a minimal impact on regular non
time namespace affected tasks, the namespace handling needs to be hidden in
a slow path.
The most obvious place is vdso_seq_begin(). If a task belongs to a time
namespace then the VVAR page which contains the system wide vdso data is
replaced with a namespace specific page which has the same layout as the
VVAR page. That page has vdso_data->seq set to 1 to enforce the slow path
and vdso_data->clock_mode set to VCLOCK_TIMENS to enforce the time
namespace handling path.
The extra check in the case that vdso_data->seq is odd, e.g. a concurrent
update of the vdso data is in progress, is not really affecting regular
tasks which are not part of a time namespace as the task is spin waiting
for the update to finish and vdso_data->seq to become even again.
If a time namespace task hits that code path, it invokes the corresponding
time getter function which retrieves the real VVAR page, reads host time
and then adds the offset for the requested clock which is stored in the
special VVAR page.
If VDSO time namespace support is disabled the whole magic is compiled out.
Initial testing shows that the disabled case is almost identical to the
host case which does not take the slow timens path. With the special timens
page installed the performance hit is constant time and in the range of
5-7%.
For the vdso functions which are not using the sequence count an
unconditional check for vdso_data->clock_mode is added which switches to
the real vdso when the clock_mode is VCLOCK_TIMENS.

pointer by CS_RAW offset.]

Since all the architectures that support the generic vDSO library have
been converted to support the 32 bit fallbacks it is not required
anymore to check the return value of __cvdso_clock_get*time32_common()
before updating the old_timespec fields.
Remove the related checks from the generic vdso library.
